If you're timing allows you to wait, i'm sure you'll get a better deal than what others are getting now...just nature of market dynamics. Some people are in the market now for a ride, so they will get it and deal with the price change consequences. Ultimately, the first-in buyers will likely realize they could have gotten the same car for a lower price down the road. It's natural and assumed.

Which dealers? It would be awesome to get ED prices without the expense. I really don't see that happening.

The difference in ED Invoice and MSRP and US Invoice and MSRP is only 7%. Going to a lot and buying an M car for 7% of US MSRP should be very doable if you go at the right time. Now is probably not the time. End of the year should be easy.

Not sure about M3, but M4 the best i could get is $1000 under MSRP...so i passed

You passed on an under MSRP deal? I got a little more than that under MSRP from a friend here in So.Cal, and I jumped on it. My M4 was the first M4 his dealer has discounted. Cars are NOT going for MSRP in most places in California; most are $5k-10k OVER. Under MSRP is definitely a deal, especially on such a sought after car with limited available allocations, and that has only been on city streets the better part of a month.

There must be a high demand in Cal then i passed mainly because the looks of the new M4 doesn't justify a payment twice as much i have currently. As for the power, im right about the same. Maybe next summer when there will be lots of M4's on the lot i will get one. That is if the M2 doesn't come out

Based on M3 history, you guys think 10+% would be attainable by next year, say during holiday season (most aggressive time)?

10% is going to be hard to achieve on a new F8X even if you waited a year. You're basically asking to have a $75k car discounted to $67,500. Hell, that's below invoice. That's not going to happen on an ///M3 or ///M4. Historically, they are far too popular to give away like that, and they tend to maintain that value/popularity.

Thanks! That's what I'm looking for. Basically trying to gauge what could be realistically attainable from these cars, based on historical data, being as how I haven't followed their pricing up until now.

If price is a motivating factor, order a base F8X. Even the base car is well equipped. The Executive Package, Full Leather and DCT bump the price of the car up significantly. If you want a stick and don't care about a leather dash, Comfort Access or leather seats, I'd opt for a base car with the $1200 19" upgraded wheels and call it a day (...unless you plan to buy wheels). Even with ZEC only, the car is under $70k.

However you build your bmw at US MSRP deduct ED discount (7%) which is $4290 and you get ED MSRP. Pus your tax and fees. So you look good, thats about right, 78k otd.

Maybe this is a random and wrong question - new to all of this - are people getting ED prices for vehicles that are already on a dealer lot? What about new orders, but not ED pickup? Sorry for the newbie question.
